The tail on this one is a dead giveaway. Not all of them are kind enough to have such a clearly red tail feather popping out to identify them 😂

I know! I'm always relieved to see the red tail because that gives me less work, haha. But the belly band is also present in juveniles, which don't have their namesake red tails yet, which is why I like to point out that detail.
